Fire danger expected across North Texas as hot, windy conditions continue
Another day in the 90s on Sunday. This is now the sixth hottest start to October on record, as of day 12.
Last year was the third hottest start by day 12. Still not a drop of rain this month. Last year, we didn't get measurable rain that month until the very last day.
While we are all watering our yards and gardens, the State Fair of Texas continues to bask in a great run of weather. This is the last week of the Fair, and that great weather continues.
There is a chance of rain, which is expected to arrive with a cold front on Saturday or Sunday. The American model (GFS) has it arriving overnight, going into Sunday morning.
While we are expecting cooler weather behind the front, the forecast is still showing above-normal highs for this time of year. We continue to wait for some fall weather to return to North Texas.
